Innovation and interdisciplinarity in media history research
Wednesday 19 March 2008, 10am – 5pm
Location: Building 19 (Arts), room 1003
Hosted by the Media Histories node of the ARC Cultural Research Network and the School of Social Sciences, Media and Communication, University of Wollongong
What does the “spatial turn” mean for media historians? Can media history inform current communications and cultural policy, particularly in rural and regional contexts? The ARC Cultural Research Network invites postgraduates and early career researchers to join Professor Robert C. Allen of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and Associate Professor Jeffrey Klenotic of the University of New Hampshire, to discuss the methodological challenges and opportunities arising from new interdisciplinary projects in the histories of media industries and their audiences.
